|
|
17. And as for thee, if thou wilt walk before me as David thy father walked, and do according to all that I have commanded thee, and wilt keep my statutes and my judgments;
|
17. And as for thee H859 , if H518 thou wilt walk H1980 before H6440 me, as H834 David H1732 thy father H1 walked H1980 , and do H6213 according to all H3605 that H834 I have commanded H6680 thee , and shalt observe H8104 my statutes H2706 and my judgments H4941 ;

|
|
19. But if ye turn away, and forsake my statutes and my commandments which I have set before you, and shall go and serve other gods, and worship them:
|
19. But if H518 ye H859 turn away H7725 , and forsake H5800 my statutes H2708 and my commandments H4687 , which H834 I have set H5414 before H6440 you , and shall go H1980 and serve H5647 other H312 gods H430 , and worship H7812 them;
|
|
20. then will I pluck them up by the roots out of my land which I have given them; and this house, which I have hallowed for my name, will I cast out of my sight, and I will make it a proverb and a byword among all peoples.

|
|
22. And they shall answer, Because they forsook the LORD, the God of their fathers, which brought them forth out of the land of Egypt, and laid hold on other gods, and worshipped them, and served them: therefore hath he brought all this evil upon them.
|
22. And it shall be answered H559 , Because H5921 H834 they forsook H5800 H853 the LORD H3068 God H430 of their fathers H1 , which H834 brought them forth H3318 out of the land H4480 H776 of Egypt H4714 , and laid hold H2388 on other H312 gods H430 , and worshiped H7812 them , and served H5647 them: therefore H5921 H3651 hath he brought H935 H853 all H3605 this H2063 evil H7451 upon H5921 them.
